National Sewing Month - Challenge #3

By Arrow at 12:29 PM Labels: , ,
Okay, you should be wrapping up those entries for NSM Challenge #2, so it's time for Challenge #3!  We fell in love with the cute sewing boxes made from old tins that were featured in the latest issue of Sew News:



Aren't they adorable?  We'd love to see what you can come up with, so dig out those empty tins and get started!


Now the important stuff - The Rules:

 
1. Make a sewing kit out of an old tin (or even a cute box). It MUST be a new item made specifically for this contest.

2. Take a picture of your finished project and email the photo to rebecca@arrowcabinets.com by Friday, September 28th at 5 pm Eastern time.

3. The projects will be voted on by Arrow staff, and the winner will be announced here on the blog on Monday, Oct 1st.
 
The winner will receive an awesome Velocity V50 iron by Reliable!
 
 
 


Creativity counts!! Don't be afraid to go for it! Remember, we'll be having more challenges throughout the month. For a little added incentive, everyone that enters all of our challenges during the month will be entered into a drawing for a Suzi storage cabinet (accessories not included)! Woohoo!
Good luck everyone! Get to work on those entries!

    sounds like a fun contest... alas, I never have enough time on these... a week just does not allow enough time in my schedule to get one done... but enjoy seeing what everyone else who's schedule is less crowded comes up with...thanks

    I don't have any old tins/boxes lying around the house. So, I'm hoping that buying a simple box to use will work.
